[SOLVED] Unable to convert string to int to perform MSecsSinceEpoch

holygirl

Hello people!

      I'm trying to convert a string into a date time format in the following way

@
QDateTime timestamp;
timestamp.setMSecsSinceEpoch(1350977160000);
qDebug()<< timestamp.toString(Qt::SystemLocaleLongDate);
@

This works well and gives me the correct output as Tuesday, 23 October, 2012 12:56:00 PM
However, when I store 1350977160000 into a QString and then try to convert it to int , it doesn't seem to give the correct output. Instead, I get Tuesday, 05 February, 2013 5:30:00 AM

@
QDateTime timestamp;
QString s = "1350977160000";

bool ok;

quint64 dateTime = s.toLong(&ok,10);
timestamp.setMSecsSinceEpoch(dateTime);

qDebug()<< timestamp.toString(Qt::SystemLocaleLongDate);

@

Please help me. Where am I going wrong?
Thanks.

Macro

Try this,

@quint64 dateTime = Q_UINT64_C(1350977160000);@

or

Change this
@quint64 dateTime = s.toLong(&ok,10);@

to

@double dateTime = s.toDouble();@

Hope it should work... :)

@
double dateTime = s.toDouble();

This worked! I swear to God I tried this before but it didn't work. But it is now. Grrrr! Such a silly thing. Thank you very much Rochi :)
